Can You Delete Multiple Messages at Once?

Unfortunately, no. Apple Watch doesn’t currently allow you to select and delete multiple messages at once. You’ll need to remove each conversation one by one by following the same swipe-and-delete method.

That’s it! 

Deleting text messages on your Apple Watch is super straightforward, just a few swipes and taps. While it’s a bummer you can’t delete multiple chats at once, this method works like a charm for quick cleanups.
